Win prizes: OnLive’s Homefront multiplayer event this Friday

OnLive (www.OnLive.com) introduces Homefront Large-Scale Warfare Multiplayer, a PlayPack-exclusive offering featuring all the large-scale intensity of Homefront’s 32-person multiplayer warfare. Homefront Large-Scale Warfare Multiplayer lets OnLive PlayPack subscribers take to the Homefront battlefield at the same basic fee of just $9.99 a month, in addition to enjoying more than 60 other awesome games in the PlayPack arsenal.

In honor of Homefront’s arrival, OnLive is celebrating  with its first ever massively multiplayer spectating event complete with red-hot prizes from THQ.

As you might know, OnLive likes to throw in an occasional Multiplayer Madness event — specific times of week when gamers can jump into the Arena and get their blast on en masse. This Friday, between 3:00pm and 5:00 pm PDT, OnLive is turning the insanity up a notch. Homefront developers THQ have promised to infiltrate OnLive—not to fight, but to spy on multiplayer participants and award cool prizes to the players with the most memorable kills.

Here’s how you can get in on the action:

1.       Whether you have Homefront Large-Scale Warfare Multiplayer through the OnLive PlayPack Bundle or a PlayPass, just sign in and launch the game this Friday, July 1, between 3:00pm and 5:00 pm PDT (6:00pm and 8:00 pm EDT).

2.       Make sure you set your permissions to allow spectators to chat with you. For instructions on how to set these permissions, read the”How do I control whether spectators can chat with me while I’m playing” section at http://bit.ly/kfxpDh . The THQ scouts will be contacting players by voice chat, so if you can’t hear, you can’t win.

3.       Play either Battle Commander TDM or Ground Control multiplayer modes and bring on your best shots. Scouts going by the player Tags THQCraig and THQJeremy will be spectating and awarding prizes as outlined below, as well as randomly doling out Homefront swag to those bold enough to join the fight.
